Re: Musings On The Thread
Percy, with all due respect, why this personal attack? You are attacking me for reluctance to buy the mainline science view.
I think the problem is that you know little about science and bring forth the most amazing "what ifs" in an effort to support your religious beliefs.
Those "what ifs" are both laughable and somewhat offensive to those of us who know the relevant science--and there are a number of experts in various fields here.
We have, in many cases, spent perhaps 40 years studying a particular field and to have someone come along and trash that effort, and all those hours of study, with what often appears to us to be deliberate ignorance is sometimes beyond patience.
You say, "You are attacking me for reluctance to buy the mainline science view." But it is more than that. You are attacking the "mainline view" based on religious belief, not on whether the evidence supports that mainline view or not.
I think the bottom line here is that if you present scientific evidence you'll be received a lot more kindly. You should try it and see.

Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.
